Julia Stockton Dinsmore (March 6, 1833 – April 19, 1926) was born in Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana, the daughter of Martha Macomb and James Dinsmore. At the age of nine, she moved to Boone County, Kentucky, where she resided until her death in 1926. The main house of the farm she inherited from her father and managed for fifty-four years is now on the National Register of Historic Places and is known as the Dinsmore Homestead. == Her Life == As a child, Julia was tutored at home until she was about sixteen years old, when she was sent to the Seminary for Young Ladies in Cincinnati, taught by Margaret Coxe, author of ''The Young Lady's Companion''. She particularly enjoyed writing poetry and sent poems to be printed in the ''Times-Democrat'' of New Orleans. In 1910 Doubleday, Page & Company published a collection of these under the title, ''Verses and Sonnets''.〔Julia Stockton Dinsmore. ''Verses and Sonnets''. New York: Doubleday, Page & Co., 1910.〕 While Julia Dinsmore never married, when her older sister, Isabella Dinsmore Flandrau died in 1867, Julia raised her two nieces, Patty and Sally, with financial help from the girls' father, Charles E. Flandrau. Following the death of her father, James Dinsmore, she inherited the Boone farm and continued to manage it until her death in 1926. She faithfully kept a journal for most of this time, giving insight into the life of a woman who lived and wrote during a time of momentous changes for the United States and for women.
